Smokin em is only temporary. Wasp killer is the answer.

Go to a good house painting store. They have a spay you can put in the frame that will kill them suckers in a heart beat. Sorry, I do not know the name of it. I just know it worked well and fast. :seeya

Hey Johnny,
Play it safe and just set the whole thing on fire. You're doing a "frame off" anyway, aren't you?
:lol:
Bzzzzzz.........OUCH!, Bzzzzzzz,OUCH!, OUCH! OOOWWWW!!! Bzz, Bzzzzz,OUCH! AAAAAAAH! HONEY, CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT! OUCH!, OUCH!!..........
Call us when you heal up. :lol:

Wait until night to spray the little buggers, that way they are all at home and there are none to come back.

Best thing to do is park the car in a garage and get a helper. Then get dressed up like a Queen bee and stand outside the garage. Get your makeup right and then say things like "Hi Sailor" and "Me Love You Long Time". When the bees come out of the frame run like hell and have your helper shut the garage door. :lolg: :lolg:

UHH... Before you do any thing drastic, make sure they are not the buzzers the general put in there to warn you your seat belts not fastened or you left the key in the ignition. :jester

Hang a *bug zapper* off the frame near one of the points of entry. If that doesn't take a few out???

Rent a rhinocerous.

If it's outside throw a tarp over it and throw a couple bug bombs under it, do it at night when they are all back to the hive and no as active. Brake cleaner is good too, dries them right up :thumbs:

My brother had a nest in one of the walls of his house and instead of removing siding to get to it with a spray can he put the end of the shop-vac hose up to the hole, turned it on, and banged the hell out of the wall. The bees flew out, got sucked into the vac and after a few minutes he sprayed the can of bee killer into hose, covered end of hose and shut it off. No problem since. :cheers:

You have Kentucky bees not bumblebees. Those Kentucky bees are the worst kind. You will probably need your sister to help you get rid of them :thumbs:
